Shamrock Rovers Edges Galway United in Tight League Opener
DUBLIN (Interstat) — Dylan Watts scored in the 75th minute to give Shamrock Rovers a 1-0 victory over Galway United in a Premier Division match Wednesday at Tallaght Stadium. The match-winner came just a minute after substitute Killian Brouder, who was credited with the assist, entered the game and received a yellow card. The win gives Rovers a perfect start to the domestic season, while Galway begins with a loss. The narrow result defied a pregame projection from Interstat, which gave Rovers a 98.8% probability to win and forecast a 2-0 scoreline.
